The most common method of starting when it comes to knee boarding lessons is the belly start. You start out lying down on your board with your stomach strap pointing towards the front of the board. Make sure the nose of the board is sticking up out of the water. Grasp the rope and kneeboard with both hands. Once the boat starts moving you should pull your knees forward so that they fit into the padded knee-wells of the kneeboard. When doing this it is important to keep your weight back and don't lean too far forward and make the board nose dive. As you get balanced on the kneeboard, you can let go of the rope with one hand while pulling the strap over your knees. Make sure you tighten the strap until it feels secure. While doing this try to keep your arms extended and slightly bent.
